Description

Acer platanoides ‘Globosum’ (Globosum Norway Maple). This is a 'lollypop' form of the Norway maple, with the scion grafted the top of the rootstock at about 2m. It has a rounded, bushy crown. It has bright green leaves which turn shades of gold, yellow and occasionally red in the autumn. Upright corymbs of small green-yellow flowers are produced just as the leaves start to unfurl, which presents a good contrast.
